Wrong again. Yet these three films do share one unfortunate characteristic - each of these pictures was over budget, drastically in some cases. Although caused by different forces and cured by different individuals, each film eventually forced someone to pay a great deal of money unexpectedly. Like many unforeseen expenses, these too can be insured against. Enter stage right, a completion guaranty company. Any and all film productions financed by non-producer third parties should have a completion guaranty.1 In the most fundamental terms, a completion guaranty 2 does exactly what its name implies-it guarantees that a film will be completed and delivered to the distributor by a certain date. In furtherance of this promise, the completion guarantor has the contractual authority and obligation to: 1) compel the producer to complete and deliver the film and advance any sums in excess of the budget required by the producer to do so, 2) take over production herself and complete and deliver the film, or 3) abandon production and repay the financier out-of-pocket expenditures plus interest with respect to the film up to the contractually established limit of liability. Understanding the detailed operations of a completion guaranty requires a base knowledge of the underlying film transaction. The simplest form of film financing involves four major players: pro- ducer, distributor, financier, and guarantor. 3 The first contract occurs between the producer and dis- Understanding the Completion Guaranty Business in Hollywood tributor. Under a typical arrangement, the producer agrees to make the film and deliver it to the dis- tributor in accordance with a number of agreed upon technical specifications. In return, the distrib- utor must pay the cost of the budget plus interest. These specs include such things as the screenplay, running requirements, and often cast and director. Once such an agreement is in place, the produc- er secures financing from a bank or other financier in the amount payable under the distribution agreement. 4 The producer then assigns the distribution agreement to the bank as its sole collater- al. 5 Simultaneously, the distributor agrees not to interfere with the film and to pay back the bank upon timely delivery of the "completed film."6 As with any loan, the financier conducts a credit analy- sis on the distributor and takes the risk that the distributor will default.

  • Coronavirus and the European Film Industry
    BRIEFING Coronavirus and the European film industry SUMMARY With the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, which has caused the shutdown of some 70 000 cinemas in China, nearly 2 500 in the US and over 9 000 in the EU, the joy sparked by the success of the film industry in 2019 has quickly given way to anxiety. Shootings, premieres, spring festivals and entertainment events have faced near-total cancellation or postponement due to the pandemic, thus inflicting an estimated loss of US$5 billion on the global box office; this amount could skyrocket to between US$15 billion and US$17 billion, if cinemas do not reopen by the end of May 2020. The EU film sector is essentially made up of small companies employing creative and technical freelancers, which makes it particularly vulnerable to the pandemic. The domino effect of the lockdown has triggered the immediate freeze of hundreds of projects in the shooting phase, disrupted cash flows and pushed production companies to the brink of bankruptcy. To limit and/or mitigate the economic damage caused by coronavirus, governments and national film and audiovisual funds across the EU have been quick in setting up both general blanket measures (such as solidarity funds and short-term unemployment schemes) and/or specific industry-related funds and grants (helping arthouse cinema and providing financial relief to producers and distributors). For its part, the EU has acted promptly to limit the spread of the virus and help EU countries to withstand its social and economic impact. In addition to the Coronavirus Response Investment Initiative (CRII) and the CRII+, both approved by the European Parliament and the Council in record time, the Commission has set up a Temporary Framework allowing EU countries to derogate from State aid rules, and proposed a European instrument for temporary support (SURE) to help protect jobs and workers affected by the coronavirus pandemic.

  • Evidence from the Film Industry
    Expected Returns on Real Investments: Evidence from the Film Industry Thomas Y. Powers∗ October 21, 2015 Abstract Using a proprietary, project-level dataset on the film industry, I study a cross-section of expected returns on real investments. Expected returns are in- creasing and concave in the idiosyncratic dollar variance of a film’s payoff, unlike in markets where such risk can be diversified. Expected returns are approxi- mately linear in dollar volatility. A $1 MM increase in volatility raises expected return by at least 43 basis points. I discuss theories from corporate finance that can rationalize the pricing of idiosyncratic risk, and I build a matching model between studios and films in which costly external finance can explain the facts. JEL Codes: G12, G32, L22. Keywords: Cross-sectional asset pricing, pricing real investments, project choice, managerial risk aversion, risk management ∗Harvard University, [email protected]. I am very grateful to John Campbell, Robin Greenwood, Victoria Ivashina, Diane Kahng, Steve Kovacs, Ari Levinson, Jean-Marie Meier, Filippo Mezzanotti, Vijay Narasiman, Jonathan Rhinesmith, David Scharfstein, Neil Shephard, Manpreet Singh, Erik Stafford, Luis Viceira, John Zhou, Eric Zwick, and the participants at the Harvard Finance Workshop and at the LBS Trans-Atlantic Doctoral Conference for their helpful comments. Additionally, I would like to thank Bruce Nash and OpusData for generously providing data and for feedback on my project. Introduction Businesses expect different returns on different projects, and these differences deter- mine which innovations are developed, which jobs are created, and which investments are available to savers. Nevertheless, despite its relevance, we know relatively little about which factors drive the cross-sectional variation in expected returns for real projects.

  • Social Media Engagement and Film Box Office
    Running head: SOCIAL MEDIA ENGAGEMENT & B.O. 1 Social Media Engagement and Film Box Office Kimberly De Jesus University of Miami School of Communication COM 409: Honors Thesis Dr. Mitchell Shapiro May 1, 2020 SOCIAL MEDIA ENGAGEMENT & B.O. 2 Abstract This paper examines the effect of social media, specifically engagement rates for Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter on box office revenue. Larger engagement rates lead to greater brand awareness, word of mouth marketing, and better relationships with customers and so we believe engagement rates can be an effective metric to help predict box office performance. We calculated Pearson correlation coefficients for daily engagement rates across the aforementioned platforms and daily domestic box office for 12 films released between February and March 2020. The results indicate that there exists a positive correlation between social media engagement rates and box office revenues for all three social media platforms being studied, of which Instagram had the strongest correlation. Keywords: Social media, Movies, Box Office, Engagement rate, Instagram SOCIAL MEDIA ENGAGEMENT & B.O. 3 Social Media Engagement and Film Box Office Since Facebook’s launch in 2004 followed by Twitter in 2006 and Instagram in 2010, it is rather obvious that social media has changed the world. From the way we communicate with friends and family to how we make decisions to how information is shared, social media has slid into virtually all facets of society and transformed them. Social media has allowed word-of- mouth to go beyond small group conversations amongst friends, family, and coworkers by the water cooler to a large networked conversation between hundreds, thousands, and even millions of users.
